Mike Caudle catches the giving spirit!

Mike Caudle wanted to give back to the community, so he contacted Hope Ministries to inquire what he could do to help for our Table of Grace Thanksgiving meal.  He took a tour of our Bethel Mission facility and while he was standing in the middle of our chapel he was inspired with the idea of donating 100 turkeys.

Armed with that vision and an enormous burst of energy, he convinced the owner of the Auro Nightclub to set the pace by matching employee contributions for the turkey project.  This accounted for 60 turkeys.  He then set out to contact other restaurant and other business owners to catch the giving spirit.

All in all eight businesses participated and Mike personally delivered 125 turkeys to Hope Ministries.

Following is a list of the participating businesses who caught Mike's vision.

• Aura Ultra Lounge = 60 Turkeys
• Jimmy's American Cafe
• 3rd Base Sports Bar
• Mickeys Irish Pub
• Nana's Restaurant
• Hooters Restaurant
• Joeseph Mennan DPM - The Foot Center
• Papa Johns Pizza - Corporate Office.

Mike's grandma raised him and was faithful in taking him to church.  She no doubt would be very pleased to see how those seeds of faith have taken root in her grandson's heart.

Hope Ministries wishes to salute Mike Caudle a partner in ministry and we give God all the praise and glory!
